Fishing for Whitefish in the blackflies

Fishing in the blackflies

Single Lake today

Single Lake is not on any map that you can find, its my name for the lake. On the snowmobile trail there is a caution sign that say Single Lane, the lake is named for the sign.  Here are a couple of pics of Single Lake.  I have been trying to get a picture of the Bittern that has been in there every year, maybe this will be the one.

Whitefish starting to bite

Finally the water has warmed up a bit to bring all the bugs out of the mud.  When that happens the Whitefish start biting. Here is some nice ones from today.

First time on the lake

Getting the boat and motor ready for summer.

Edith Lake road and rapids

First trip up to the rapids, road still soft but hardly any snow.  Water about were it should be at this time.

Going to town yesterday I met a young cow moose.

More from today

By late afternoon the ice had withdrew to the south almost to the south end of Arkose Island.

Ice is melting quickly
